Who we are About Stripe
Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career.
Bridge is creating an entirely new payments platform, built with stablecoins, to simplify global money movement. Bridge enables faster, cheaper payments and borderless access to dollars via stablecoins. Through our APIs, businesses can send and receive funds across borders faster / cheaper vs. SWIFT and other fiat-only rails. Our virtual accounts enable international consumers and businesses to easily access, store and spend US dollars. Our payouts infrastructure enables platforms to disburse USD to anyone globally. We believe many trillions of dollars will move and settle through stablecoin payment rails. Bridge is pulling this future forward.
About the team
The Stripe Finance & Strategy team is an integral thought partner to Stripe’s core functional leaders. We bring understanding and predictability to Stripe’s bottom line financials. We work cross functionally across many surfaces at Stripe and help steward Stripe’s resource investments to improve the durability of our long term financial performance. This role will partner closely with Bridge, a small team of people experienced in building financial infrastructure at leading companies.
What you’ll do
We are looking for a Strategic Finance Partner who combines the rigor of a trained financial analyst with the technical self-sufficiency to answer complex business questions independently. This is a high-ownership, high-exposure role. You will own business forecasting, pricing analytics, and cross-functional partnerships that drive how Bridge allocates capital, sets prices, and grows.
This is an early and consequential moment to join the finance function. You will be among the first finance hires in the organization and will have broad exposure across Bridge and Stripe leadership.
Responsibilities Forecasting & Reporting. Own full P&L reporting, forecasting, and budgeting — with an emphasis on revenue, unit economics, and the stablecoin payment flows that drive Bridge's business.
Pricing & Deal Modeling. Lead pricing strategy across Bridge's product suite. Build models to evaluate pricing for enterprise deals, key accounts, and new product initiatives. Translate complex stablecoin transaction economics into pricing decisions that are both competitive and financially sound.
Strategic Financial Analysis. Partner with business leaders across Bridge to analyze the financial impact of strategic initiatives, understand their business questions and deliver analytical frameworks that drive real decisions.
Metrics & Analytics. Partner with Bridge's data science team to define, build, and maintain the key business and operational metrics that measure Bridge's growth and efficiency. You own the financial lens on this work.
Data & SQL Ownership. Write and maintain complex SQL queries and views to support P&L reporting, forecasting, and ad-hoc financial analysis. Work with engineering to ensure accuracy of financial metrics. Bridge has built strong infrastructure in Metabase and Databricks — you leverage it and go beyond it independently, without filing tickets and waiting.
Stripe Finance Partnership. Integrate Bridge financials into broader Stripe company financial reporting and forecasting. Evolve the finance partnership and reporting structure as Bridge and Stripe develop joint product initiatives.
Who you are
We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.
Minimum requirements 7+ years in strategic finance, FP&A, investment banking, private equity, consulting, or analytical business operations. We care about the rigor of your training, not the specific industry.
Strong financial modeling fundamentals — you build 3-statement models, unit economics frameworks, and cohort analyses from a blank spreadsheet. You understand the assumptions behind the numbers, not just the formulas.
Genuine SQL proficiency. You write your own queries when the dashboard doesn't have what you need. Experience building data tables in Databricks or similar environments is a strong plus.
A demonstrated track record of cross-functional partnership — you have sat with non-finance leaders, understood the actual problem they were trying to solve, and built something that improved their decision-making.
Intellectual curiosity and drive. Stablecoin payments infrastructure is genuinely complex. We need someone who will spend real time understanding how the business works — the settlement flows, the transaction economics, the cross-border mechanics — not skim the surface.
Self-directed, organized, and a strong communicator. You own your outcomes.
High performance under tight timelines. A roll-up-your-sleeves, get-it-done mentality that fits a small team building something new.
Preferred qualifications Prior experience in fintech, payments, or crypto — particularly in transaction-based or stablecoin business models.
Familiarity with Databricks, dbt, Looker, or Metabase.
Experience in a first-finance-hire or early-stage company context.
Exposure to enterprise deal structuring or pricing in a payments or API-product business.
In-office expectations Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible. Pay and benefits
